Cheddar cheese and sugar

Last night I was feeling a bit nostalgic, and hungry too! When I am in that mood, I will often reach for extra-sharp cheddar cheese, dipped in granulated sugar. My Pennsylvania grandmother used to sit at the end of the kitchen table (the end closest to the stairs down to the basement, where many good things waited to be consumed!) and spoon white sugar over cheddar cheese. It is a wonderful comfort food, and one that reminds me of how simple things can be so satisfying.

About Me

I grew up mostly in Congo/Zaire, a child of missionaries. Lately I've been very interested in documenting my family history. I have a treasure-trove of family letters and photos, and will slowly be integrating those into posts.
